Project Overview: This is the first iteration of a newly designed junior high prototype building. The building will be three-stories totaling 254,000 square feet. There will be 52 classrooms, a commons, stage, little theatre, and gymnasium with an indoor running track. West Point City has partnered with the district to provide a double size gymnasium which will be used by the school during the day and the city in the evenings. The new building will be heated and cooled with an energy efficient ground-source heat exchange system which uses the constant temperature of the earth to heat and cool the building. The electrical usage of the building will be offset by photo-voltaic panels located on the roof. The site will have a separate parent drop-off and bus drop-off. Pickleball courts and an artificial turf play field with an 8-lane running track will be located adjacent to the City’s soccer park.
